Philosophy

Welcome to Outlaws athletics! Our athletic program is proud to be part of our excellent offerings of co-curricular opportunities at Sisters Middle School and Sisters High School.  We purposefully categorize Sisters Athletics as “co-curricular” not “extra-curricular” because, as a coaching staff, our goal is to be an integral part of the teaching mission of our school.  Our coaches believe that their work is an extension of the classroom.  In addition to learning the “X’s and O’s” of sport specific drills, our student-athletes will develop lifelong values of teamwork, leadership, dedication,  sportsmanship, goal setting, maintaining composure, poise, developing a strong work ethic, balancing busy schedules, and living a healthy lifestyle, which will ultimately assist them in becoming upstanding men and women who give back to their community.

Beyond wins and losses, the primary goal of our athletic department is to provide a program that clearly demonstrates that athletics is a positive and energizing means to advance the physical, emotional, spiritual, intellectual, and moral development of our student-athletes. Simply put, our coaches strive to “coach for character”.
